That isn't as bad as my awful dealer in Lake City, FL. They just got a new Cyber Orange hybrid in, sticker says $28,215 but it can be yours for just $38,215. That will work for me if they give me a fortune for my 10 year old trade.

Last year Apopka slowly added on to the mark-up every other month $500 until it was $3,000. I saw a First Edition one time with a $5,000 mark-up but that was the highest. I guess now they are up to $4,000 for hybrids.

In other news, my truck is in Tampa. It was supposed to travel by truck when it got to Taft, but it looks like it may have ended in Tampa. Anyone else have their truck travel by convoy from Tampa to Apopka?

No but I hear it’s common. You’re likely at the two week mark for delivery, factoring in PDI and all.

Time to reach out to your dealer and confirm your private offer rebate and line up any dealer add-on’s you want. Good time to get that bed liner or floor mats.

Exciting times!

Mine has been on the same route, about 2-3 days behind. Is it likely for mine to do the same?

If you’re tracking the rail car and it’s In Tampa, it’s real close. Haven’t heard of any problems getting freight moved back and forth from Tampa and Orlando.

Hopefully it's less than two weeks away. I plan on applying for funding next week.

Credit Union I hope. These dealers are not giving out any deals on financing. Are you trading? Putting cash down? See if you can get the paperwork finalized, so you know exactly how much you will be borrowing.

Yeah doing all of the above. I'm getting a trade in estimate tomorrow with them and then checking with the other places to see who will offer the most.

I plan on applying for two credit unions and then see what Ford will offer when it comes in just for the hell of it.

Nice! Sounds like you got it all lined up. Good luck and let us know how it all goes.

2016 kia soul- 2023 santa cruz SE
Engine
2.5L Hybrid
My luck !! all I had to do is buy something else,a santa cruz SE in Jan. and we get our only peep from Ford in 17 months- yours is being built(so they say) April 10th week and I have a vin #, so may come in to dealer in May? its a Area 51 xlt, one opt trailer hitch, we are going to see if it ever comes in, as I never got to even drive one yet,its up to my wife to trade her Kia soul, I would like both ,but we really dont need the 2 car payments, being on fixed income now. I like both, we shall ,see, if not I know Mullinax dont care as they will sell it in a day or 2, if we dont take it. the "new" sort of wore off after 1 months wait so far.I really like the santa crua I got the base SE ,which is hard to compare to the hybrid on mileage, but im gettin mid-high 20's so far.

I'm guessing you ordered at Vero Beach right? I think they were marking them up the most so if you don't take it, maybe they would be willing to give you $1000-2000 to walk away so they can sell it for $5000-7500 over.

yes its the Vero beach store-well see what happens , if my wife says no,to trade her kia soul, im going to ask, about a walkaway deal ?! its a hassle and to much $$ for us to buy it outright, then resell, as we would have to pay full sales tax-tags-reg-fees and insure it .till we sold it. and they wont let it go to anyone else but "our name" on i, to get the "private offer" deal.we have. after 17 months we about gave up !! Oh course its not built yet,and I see many on this site writing in about delays etc.so who knows. myself I would like both, but being retired ,fixed income, and cutting back, that may not happen!
